Just to add to Pat's story. I lost a best friend when he was working on one of our fork lifts. He was 35 yrs old married and had two kids. We raced together every week end. He was pulling the mask of the fork truck and was using a Jap block and tackle form a tool shop called HENRY'S. Which is not in business now. The block and tackle could'nt hold the weight and flew apart causing the mask of the truck to crush him. I'm just letting you guys know that this is serious subject that you can not take lightly. Please tell everyone you know to throw away those cheap Jap tools and be carsful buying cheap stuff at the swap meets. There'a ton af gypsy's selling junk tools so please be careful. I'd love to put them all out of business.
